So if this opens above 100 (like I think it will now), will this affect Civil Wars opening in anyway from families who go to this instead of another super hero movie?

This doesn't have a ton of competition for families besides Civil War and Angry Birds all the way until the end of May.

 

Angry Birds is DOA.

Fuck, Disney kills it again. Civil war might be headed for 200 million. No pacquio/mayweather fight this time.

It should do okay. Maybe hit 100M domestic.

I am starting to believe Alice 2 will make a lot of money.

After 4 weekends, the hates are still there. It's astonishing. Some kind of" vast right wing conspiracy?"

Haha I actually love Batman VS Superman, I saw it twice!

[superduperm]

What a time to be a Disney fan. They're flowing in dough right now.

The whole franchise has been collapsing hard the past couple years, someone is getting fired after this.

Xmen apocalypse is in deep trouble. Similarly, IDR will be coming the weekend after Finding Dory, so might get affected big time.

Is half the first one a lot of money?

Dear Lord Hollywood, have some decency.

BTW, Jungle Book is a FANTASTIC film. Geezus!! I don't know how they pulled this off. I can't imagine a better adaptation of this film. I'll be very surprised if the Andy Serkis one surpasses it.

Any sports play offs when CW land? Last year was packed when AOU released.

NHL and NBA have their playoff season between now and mid-June. So yes there will be some.

I'm gonna have to eat crow. I totally said that $100M OW for Jungle Book wasn't going to happen.

Knowing nothing about the budget, 500m seems decent.

Understatement of the year.

You weren't the only one, this opening has to catch the industry off sides. I think the expectations were much lower.

I am thinking 200M. Which would surpass almost everyone's predictions.

TRUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSST in Jungle Book

[The Panda]

100m OW is definitely happening now, at least for the estimates.

 

That's very good and higher than I expected.
